Mbingo Baptist Hospital motivated for championing treatment of Fistula
The hospital was encouraged to do more in the treatment of women with obstetrics Fistula during a ceremony at the Baptist Center in Bamenda, February 14, 2024 to donate Fistula repair equipment to the hospital.
The equipment comprised 41 surgical items worth 5 million FCFA funded by Hope and Healing International via the Socio-Economic Empowerment of Females with Fistula, SEEFF, project of the CBC Health Services.
Prof. Tih Pius Muffih, Director of CBC Health Services handed the donated items to the beneficiary hospital.
Receiving the equipment on behalf of Mbingo Baptist Hospital, the surgeon in charge of Fistula repair, Dr. Ngock George and the Assistant Administrator for Personnel, Kwalar Rene expressed profound gratitude to Hope and Healing International Canada for donating the equipment that will greatly improve the treatment of Fistula not only in Mbingo but in Cameroon.
SEEFF project officer, Yasmine Ayenjika hailed Mbingo Baptist Hospital for treating over 60 of the about 100 women with obstetrics Fistula within the project cycle.
Although support to treat women with Fistula from Hope and Healing International ended in December 2023, the treatment still continues in Mbingo and Nkwen Baptist Hospitals with the clients taking full responsibility for their treatment.
